remctl_set_source_ip(3) [debian man page]

REMCTL_SET_SOURCE_IP(3) 				     remctl Library Reference					   REMCTL_SET_SOURCE_IP(3)

NAME

       remctl_set_source_ip - Set source IP for remctl client connections

SYNOPSIS

       #include <remctl.h>

       int remctl_set_source_ip(struct remctl *r, const char *source);

DESCRIPTION

       remctl_set_source_ip() sets the source IP address for subsequent calls to remctl_open() on the same struct remctl object.  Call this
       function before remctl_open() if remctl client connections need to come from a specific source IP.

       The source parameter may be an IPv4 or IPv6 address (assuming the host supports IPv6).

       Be aware that if you set an IPv4 source address and then attempt to connect to an IPv6 address or IPv6-only host, or if you set an IPv6
       address and then attempt to connect to an IPv4 address or IPv4-only host, you will get a connection failure error from remctl_open().

RETURN VALUE

       remctl_set_source_ip() returns true on success and false on failure.  On failure, the caller should call remctl_error() to retrieve the
       error message.

       The current version of the remctl library and complete details of the remctl protocol are available from its web page at

REMCTL_ERROR(3) 					     remctl Library Reference						   REMCTL_ERROR(3)

NAME

       remctl_error - Retrieve the error from a failed remctl operation

SYNOPSIS

       #include <remctl.h>

       const char *remctl_error(struct remctl *r);

DESCRIPTION

       remctl_error() returns the error from a previously failed remctl operation.  Its only argument is a remctl struct as returned by
       remctl_new().  If the previous remctl operation was successful, returns the constant string "No error".

       The caller may not modify the returned string.  The string may even be stored in read-only memory and attempting to modify it may cause a
       memory fault.  The returned pointer will be invalidated by the next call to any remctl API function with the same client object, other than
       remctl_error().

RETURN VALUE

       remctl_error() returns either the previous error or the constant string "No error".  It will never return NULL.
